Jonathan Williams

A Palpable Elysium: Portraits of Genius and Solitude

by Jonathan Williams

Publisher's Description

If any place of the past century spawned originals like a breeding box, it was Black Mountain College, and among its many illustrious graduates is one Jonathan Williams, poet, publisher, raconteur, and eclectic collector of like spirits. In this wonderfully quirky book, WIlliams has made the rounds and produced his inventory of poets, painters, writers and artists whose only commonality is their unequivocal distinction.
